Hi cherubs
It's riffing Griff again on part two of [Am] meantime blues
Right, this is how you play the slowest right down
And [F] I probably play a little bit in swing time to kind of make it sound a bit easier at slow speed
I think the last video I'm recording directly into YouTube
And I think it slowed me down by about a semitone whether it's right will write itself.
I don't know
But so you [N] think that I sound deeper than I actually do [A] anyway
[D]
[Am] Right
Right the basic
Chordal effect there's only [G] one chord on this number in [A] a is open a string fifth string
on the fourth string is [E] presses on a [A] second fret and on the third string
[B] Presses the second [A] fret a and then [E] those are the only notes you should [A] hear
Now the basic riff goes like this.
[C] Oh, no
C [Db] C [Am] sharp
[A] [E]
But what proceeds is this on the e string only
[G] G [Ab] sharp
[Em] Go
[A] now
[Gm] [A]
what I'm not showing you at the moment
Sly old me is the fact that we need to damp on this
So you damping is a is a mixture of taking the fingers off [D] [A] on the left hand
[G] He stops the nose, but more importantly and this is a technique beloved of country [D] players
[Ab] The heel of [N] the right hand or
Depending on if you're a left-hander obviously be the left hander.
I [Am] guess
And [Ab] the artist to make [A] some notes
[G]
[E] [D] Others not and they'll can tell you how to play it.
[G] Yeah, they're gonna have to sort of feel you into this [A] one
You can [B] hear how when you let have to [A] let those
Go on those ring.
[Ab] You got to know just went to damp on when not to
[A]
[Em]
[A]
So that's the the first bit of the riff
You want [Em] to practice that [B] then next bit?
I'll go on a little bit more
Good luck with that.
